    I remember getting a box of Freakies back in the day,and as I reached in to get the toy I felt more than one! Kept digging and finding more. Excitedly I poured the box out into a mixing bowl and hit the mother load. there were 15 toys in the box!!
    That was one exciting breakfest.

      Might be worth watching.

      Some of the other stuff might go pretty cheap, though.

      All matching items for sale.

        Wow, seeing this blew my mind. I had the cereal as a kid and more importantly, the toys!

          Freakies cereal has been brought up before.

          Whoever created these must have been brilliant because I remember them as being the most sought after figures.

          I distinctly remember a cereal premium that had the Freakies in cars with a small tube on the back that would cause the car to move forward when you squeezed the tube. Funny that I remember that after 30+ years.

            I remember having a Freakies T-Shirt too! I loved it.

                    As a kid I LOVED Freakies cereal. Loved it. I have some good friends in a band named after the cereal.MySpace.com - The Freakies - Flint City, Michigan - Punk / Rock / Punk - www.myspace.com/thefreakies

                    Someday I'll have to go back a collect the Freakies premiums and the Kool-aid Give-away cups to recapture yet more childhood memories.
